@jaredbusch said in Fax: Sangoma FAXstation:

@bigbear there was a lot of random speculation about the service earlier. In the thread. The entire concept of it generating an email blows my mind. No where does it ever state anything like that happened @scottalanmiller

It is poorly explained all around in their marketing. I saw it for years and forget how I ended up trying it. It was also horribly named before as FachsBachs or something crazy. FaxxBochs.

Its online supposed to be a "Cyber Monday" thing?

@dims said in Is the 3-2-1 rule antiquated?:

the majority of the previous cases of implementing such solutions indicates that the most popular would be the one where the data would first be replicated between 2 hosts, on site and one off prem.

Yes, because normally that is insant, you'd not want to wait for the WAN copy before making the local one.

@jackcpickup said in Korora Desktop Rollcall:

Really like Fedora with KDE Plasma atm. Trying Deepin on my laptop too

Deepin is surprisingly good.

Love the look of it and my touchpad feels pretty good on it. Nextcloud client isn't proving very stable atm though, having to configure it again. Followed your guide setting that up (top result on Google!)

NC has been totally stable for me on Deepin.

@tim_g said in PowerShell Regex - How to remove everything after first line?:

Actually, I'm sticking to this:

$compName = Get-WmiObject win32_ComputerSystem | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name if ($compName -match "WINDOWS") { $dellTag = Get-WmiObject win32_bios | Select-Object -ExpandProperty SerialNumber Rename-Computer -NewName $dellTag -Force -Restart } Exit

Compared to sed, that makes my head hurt. Glad you got it sorted, and an example for when I'll need to do the same thing.

@hobbit666 said in CrashPlan Getting Out of the Home Backup Business:

I'm interested in getting something for my Mum, as she has large amounts of photos (not in size just in numbers)

Think I wont more of an archive system, as today she might have photos from 2001 - 2017 filling her HD, so if I deleted them, then after the next "backup" ran these would disappear? next time the backup is ran???

Yes, this is how backups work.

What you are wanting is storage, not a backup.

@dashrender said in Intel finds critical holes in secret Management Engine hidden in tons of desktop, server chipsets:

Here is a program Intel put together to tell you if you are vulnerable to this and several other security flaws they have found.

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27150

But be warned, it's written by a company known to not understand security or be concerned about its customers. So...

I mostly get my products from NewEgg and CDW. My current CDW rep is pretty good. The best thing about my rep is he admits software licensing is crazy and talks with his team to find me the right licenses every time.

YMMV but I give a +1 lately to CDW. I have been to a couple local events and they admit they will not be the lowest price but are trying to offer better services and side benefits.

After reading many SW/blog posts by SAM, I do watch out for the VAR related issues.

Edit: - As for finding the right MS software licenses on CDW, don't waste your time. If you don't find the correct MS Part-# just ask your rep to find out. As you found out CDW will list every single license from all types of MS contracts (Government, Open Value, Open License, 0-5 users, 100+ users, 500+ users). It is not worth the pain. It is better if you ask your rep, "Can you find me a W2016 Standard License with 16 Cores?" or "Can you find me 20 2016 RDS User CAL's under my Open Value license?"

@jaredbusch said in youtube video downloader:

someone asked this question on here like 3 or 4 weeks ago.

Sorry about that, searched and found someone recommended:

I tested it and it works. My only concern is that an end user will click on one of the other links and download something they shouldn't...

Can't fix user.

@travisdh1 said in Updating Fedora 25 to Fedora 26 with DNF:

Fedora 27 Server note: The server edition hasn't been released yet according to https://getfedora.org/en/server/download/.

Using @scottalanmiller's upgrade instructions, it happily goes to 27.

That has nothing to do with DNF upgrades.

@travisdh1 said in How to install SuiteCRM 7.8.3 on Fedora 25 Minimal:

Just thought I'd report back that these instructions are still working for

Version 7.9.7
Sugar Version 6.5.25 (Build 344)

Just installed a local copy to see if it'll meet our needs for user tracking and such. Will probably pay for an instance on Hostadillo if it does.

Guess it's my day to resurrect old how-to threads.

Not bad timing. I am installing this for a client this evening.

@fuznutz04 said in Hyper-V Manager connection issues:

I also checked that DCOM permissions are set correctly.

Yeah, I read that 1709 completely changes the network stack. It's what supposedly causing my mis-reporting info for my AV and firewall.

My firewall had to be reconfigured so I can reconnect Hyper-V Manager to Hyper-V 2012 R2. I had no issue connecting to Hyper-V 2016.

Do you remember what settings you changed (and where) so you can connect to HyperV 2012R2 again?

@dbeato said in To Cable, or Not to Cable:

The only thing I would not run over wifi is VoIP phones, not because of security but stability on the network.

I've been doing this all week (and I'm in India) without issues....

Yes, I know we have discussed this.

I found a solution to this, by manually enabling the functionality.

It sucks, but it works.

@dafyre said in Slow RDS sessions:

Are the thin clients hardwired or wireless?

They are hardwired.

3CX is a decent enough solution, but it does have costs that other systems do not.

FreePBX is what I recommend to the casual admin or IT guy that want to do it themselves.

For more advanced people that know a thing or two about a PBX, I tell them about Wazo and FusionPBX.

@ghani said in Primary Domain Controller dns server host records are missing:

@tim_g

they dont have any backups

Then it must not be important enough to have in production or waste time on fixing... is my rough assumption.

Looks like this was funded at nearly 150%. The only downside is that you have to wait over a year to get your phone that will more than likely be out of date when you get it.
